PIP error with certbot-auto

Help
20

It’s not quite that simple.

The pyenv install step doesn’t work because:

WARNING: seems you still have not added 'pyenv' to the load path.

# Load pyenv automatically by adding
# the following to ~/.bashrc:

export PATH="/root/.pyenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"

However, after doing that the pyenv install 3.4.2 command completes with warnings:

WARNING: The Python bz2 extension was not compiled. Missing the bzip2 lib?
WARNING: The Python readline extension was not compiled. Missing the GNU readline lib?
WARNING: The Python sqlite3 extension was not compiled. Missing the SQLite3 lib?

and the certbot install fails with:

RuntimeError: cryptography requires setuptools 18.5 or newer, please upgrade to a newer version of setuptools

So, you may need:

PYENV_VERSION=3.4.2 pip install setuptools --upgrade

Also, when I run certbot now, I get a warning:

CryptographyDeprecationWarning: OpenSSL version 1.0.1 is no longer supported by the OpenSSL project, please upgrade. A future version of cryptography will drop support for it.

Otherwise, I really like this solution! :smile:

ETA: running certbot renew tells me:

Could not choose appropriate plugin for updaters: Could not select or initialize the requested installer apache.

So, also needs:

PYENV_VERSION=3.4.2 pip install certbot-apache

or whatever other plugins you need.
